Dear Sir:-
The International Electrical Exhibition
Managers are writing us about boilers for their coming exhibition.
Wo have made thed offers-to put in boilers on very favorable tones
but they have not seen fit as yet to accept our proposition.' Are
you going to exhibit, and, if so, cant you put in a good word for
us in such a way that it will help us secure the order? We dont
expect to sell the boilers*cTBitright, but are willing to exhibit
fOr a sum of money equal’to the amount the boilers depreciate la
running. We are very stir's you could help us in this if you could
kindly do so.
Yours truly,
The Babcock ft Wilcox Co.

Please sand us your chock for $4,230.62, the
amount due on various boilers purchased by you.
At the time arrangements wore made with you in regard to the
gonoral use of our boilers in connection with your Electric Light¬
ing plants wo entered into an agreement making special price with
a supplementary draw-back on our side, while you,were to pay at
certain times. Wo are sor.ry to say that this agreement has not
been filled on your side. The last financial talk the writer had
in regard to the matter was with your Mr. lnsull, who was just then
leaving for Europe. He said that on his return ho would look into
tho matter and straighton it up, and wo made concessions to tide
ovor tho period of Hr. lnsull* s absence. We are groatly in nood of
funds and would thank you very much to nond us a check for tho
above mentioned amount. In order to secure tho drawback mentioned
in our agreement wo shall have to insist on prompt payments aa
all our goods aro bought for cash price and our.list price is based

coal :
nic;n is
draft,
natural drart a very largo amount of air in ok g o as of that roquirod
for perfect oorabuution hao to bo passed through the fuol and tho
loss is represented by tho incroasod volume thrown away at tho
stack tomporaturo. This ordinarily amounts to from 70 to 100 per
cent moro air th.an is necessary to furnish oxygon for combustion.
'H,y carrying a thicker firo and running a’ blowur tho amount of air
furnish od in excess can bo reduced to 15 per cent and moro than
enough saving mado to paj-j'for running tho blower, bosidos the ad¬
vantages of burning a choapor class of fuol and having stoam al¬
ways at your call',
Tho probability is, from what wo know of your case, that if
you would shut off'one boiler ontiroly, use a blov/or, and burn tho
whole of tho coal you arc now consuming undor ono boilor, you would
"got much hotter results than you are now /jotting. Tho hew York
Stoam Company, whoso business it is to furnish stoam to customers
all over how York City, are running our boilers with fine coal, us--
ing blowers, and find this tho most economical way of doing, "'o

Yours of the 8th at hand. Would call your at¬
tention to ours of Mch»25th, in'which wo say,"Ploaso find enclosed
shipping list for 92 H*P. boiler to Piquo, Ohio. Also invoice for
same amounting to $1905. Due:
$476.25 March 13th.
952.50 April 21st.
$470.25 May 21st.
The letter continues by saying? “On last payment an allowance
of $141 .,25 will be made if paid as aboyo.“
You handed us check for the full amount the 1st of this month,
but we would like to call your attention to the fact that payments
were not made as por agreement. There should be some systematic
arrangement between us so that we may know whero wo stand. Re¬
ductions made to the Construction Department were based on pay¬
ments at certain times and wo think it is no more than fair we
should call your attention to the fact that these payments have
pot boon made as por agreement. The contract should be as binding
on one party as on the other and if' the contract as drawn cannot
be livod up to on either side wo think that some new arrangement
sh oul d be made.
On account of your having paid the full amount the 1st of May
instead of the last we enclose you check for the allowance.

Mr. Edison,
OSw, 9, tf*y-
The Law Committee of the Light Co. directed me to
hire a young lawyer, Mr. O'Callaghan. 1 believe we can save his
salary by giving him certain work outside of the Patent Office
and interferences. He is to receive 81500 the first year, $2,000
the second and 82500 the third. We can terminate the contract
at the end of any one year, but he cannot. He is to-retain his •
office down town, but is to call here every morning and evening,
and be here whenever necessary.
The first thing I shall put him to is the kBgxskaXjcBH
condition of legislation in the various States; also the pecu¬
liar features of the'Massachusetts statute touching the payment -
of a license fee to us in -that State; also the license between
the Light Co. and the Isolated Co. We have a good many questions
that require a pretty exhaustive examination of authorities at the
law libraries, which I cannot possibly take the time to make, and
which would be very expensive if done by the job.
0*Callaghan is thoroughly familiar with patent liti¬
gation, in Court, and can take^charge of the Sawyer and Man suit
against us, in a general way, theeeby, in that alone, saving us
his salary. . .

The Ellison system of lighting has been for a year past an accomplished, pi aclical,
? fact, bat the financial results, as shown by the balance sheets of the three Companies, are
inting, if not disheartening.
■my opinion we are drifting toward destruction.
ire money will be required, and in the present stale of publio feeling Stoclcholders will not
to our calls on a mere promise of large dividends at some indefinite period in the future,
w.that we have, so to speak, passed the experimental period and are on an established
1 basis, it is our duty as Directors and Officers to so manage the business that the best
zl results shall be secured for the Stockholders.
hilst I am not willing to assent to any niggardly policy, I must insist on proper economy,
viping out of all interests that, in the nature of things; are antagonistic to the best welfare
everal companies.
■th these explanations I submit the following suggestions for the purpose of bringing out
a general discussion and expression of opinion as to what is best for us to do to develop the F’ u -"- ‘
System, and place it where it ought to be, a blessing to mankind, and a profit to those who, in
confidence .in Mr. Edison, have so freely and liberally advanced their moneys to enable h
elaborate and complete his wonderful inventions.
I beg you to understand that, feeling the necessity that something should be done, I give
suggestions merely as an initial or starting point, or in other words to open top the subject.
The Junior Companies have practically lived up to their agreements with the Parent Com
whilst it, so far as I can learn, has never taken any steps towards protecting tllcm in the
for which they pqid so heavily. On asking the reason, I am told it will cost $800,000 and
years of time. Further, that opposition Light Companies make no secret of using our patenti
boast they will continue to do so whenever they can make them available.
To merge these differences I suggest to consolidate into a new Company, at about p,
market value, say COMPANY (give it a short n
Paiil-up Capital $3,120,000, with privilege of increasing to $ ,000,000, divided as follows
Light Company, $1,080,000, at 1H neiv shares for each old share, $1,620,000
Isolated, 1,000,000, at share for share, .... 1,000,000
Illuminating, 1,000,000, at 1 new share for 2 old ones, - - 500,000
Calling up unpaid instalments on old shares xvill give us money for our wants for some
is the Parent Company now has in its treasury a large amount of Isolated and Jllumin
Shares, the exchange of these into new stoolc will leave in the new treasury some $800,000 of
is right to wire and supply fixtures, provided he complies with the rules of the Board, of
i' writers. Any royalty ivc may make out of the present system is more than lost in the
to our business through enhanced cost to customers.
lith in the Edison Light is stronger than ever, but to make it a financial success it must
l at a, price, every thing included, reasonable enough to make it available for the masses,
we it can be done.
are going on now we shall be worse off financially at the end, of the year than we are
if we, can arrange to re-organize our business, take advantage of the hard, times in build
(two stations uptown at a reasonable, cost to the Company nncl to the consumer, we will
a great deal towards bringing the market value of our Stockholders' property, much,
n it is in-day, to what I believe to be its intrinsic value.
sing I beg to repeat, these suggestions are merely given as an initial or starting point for
better, and are conveyed, to yon in this manner, rather than verbally at a meeting, for
3 of giving ample time fur the investigation and thought that is necessary for such an
matter, us any radical, change should only he made after a mature, careful consideration
hnngc of views.
Edison,
Mr. Shaw says that he was not aware the stock had
not all been taken. He says there w^re plenty of people to take
it, but that their trouble with you, and their doubts about.the
installation fie., have probably discouraged them.
He says his Shamokin syndicate will take the stock im¬
mediately, and that he will see them about it on Monday.

estimated running expenses and profits of the Utica plant, a week
or two ago. Will you kindly have a copy made? You may remember

Mr. Insull:-
Mr. Dyer informs me that your office recoiveda cable
some time ago from Mr. Batchelor saying that the Stockholm patents
had been vacatod. Can this be so?. It seems to me I am entitled
to know all such highly important information as this, and not be
placed in the position of learning it by chance from other sources,
than your office. I hope there is some mistake about it, and
that it will not turn out that such important information has not
been made known to the officers of the light Co,.
If such a cable was received, will you kindly tell me
what the substance of it was?,

Mr* Insullj-
Beferring to your mom. giving news about 7 or 8
village plants, lot mo suggest that you send the original letters
to me instead of giving me a summary of them. I am especially
desirous of this because the statements made in your memo are quite
in conflict with private information which I got from other relia¬
ble sources, and it raises in my mind the same old doubt as to
whether I am Kept fully informed of both the good and the bad from
your office up stairs. If you send me anything at all please lot
me have all the original documents themselves, that is to say all

to take the responsibility to ask Mr. Insu.ll to order :

credit the price on the new engine. My reason for giving this
order in the absence of Mr, Edison, is that all the parties admit
that the lights at Bellofonto are very irregular, giving dissat¬
isfaction and causing large lamp breakage, owing to the bad regu¬
lation of the engine, which Mr. Moore says cannot be corrected un¬
til the engine is brought I
3 the shop. All parties
admit that the present engine is not large enough. Whil'o there
may be no great hukry about that, doubtless the bad regulation
ought to have’immediate attention. Consequently 1 take the lib¬
erty of asking you to change the engine at once, without waiting

Mr. Insull,
The Committee on Expenditures ere dissatisfied with the
Testing Room expenses' I persuade them to insist on’; no change
being made until Mr. Edison,returns. I beleive he has always
intended to have the Machine'Works pay'us for their testing, but
am not sure of it.’ I only mention'‘it now so that in case the'
complaint reaches you, that they are dissatisfied with the ex¬
pense, you will know the position I have taken, via’," that the
whole mat ter; ought to % laid over until Mr.>Bdison returns and
that he will then do what is fair about it. Vj

The business of the Machine Works is conducted by us

matters are in dispute, you will write us in relation thereto, as .
otherwise delay must occur in consequence of all such matters
having to be ultimately referred to this office.

Do'you-'not think you had bettor .answer this letter yo«r-
self, instead of my doing it? I assume from.you mem. that such is
your intention.
It is queer equity, as Mr. Edison says, for him to
bear the expense. Let me suggest that you keep a separate acc¬
ount of whatever expense there may be, and hereafter we will con¬
sider who ought to bear it. We are all interested in making the
Shamokin plant a.success. In fact that must be done, even if the
light Co. has to bear all the expense (itself*

Will Messrs Edison, Insull, Johnson and Upton kindly
attend at my office, No. 65 Fifth Avenue, Monday evening, ’ April
28th., at 8-15, to discuss what should be done with the present
business of the Construction Department, on the hypothesis that
Mr. Edison may disband his present organization?
A meeting of the Light Co’s Committee on Manufacturing
and Reorganization is^likely to be hold on Tuesday, at which I shall
be asked, I am notified, to express my. views on this question.
It would therefore be of great value to me to have the benefit of

I have purposely limited the number invited to attend

Mr. Edison,
The first reason was that the case is now in splendid
shape and delay could only operate to enable the enemy to make his
part of the case stronger.^
The other reason was that the matter was all now fresh

pay 810 a week. I believe you propose to shut up Goerck street

Now that I have got the expenses of the Light Co.
and the Ill. Co. well in hand, I am turning my attention more
closely to the Isolated Co.
Here is their monthly pay roll everywhere. You see it

knife in somewhere and reduce it.- It includes everything except

- -- Th*-ommUf b 9f ThW* appointed “at the meeting of' the
Board of Directors on May 12th; 18B4, report:
FIRST: That they have had two full meetings; since
which, time the illness of Hr. Adams has made it necessary for the
other two members of the Committee to conduct negotiations with
Hr. Edison and his associates, with whpm-thoy have almost daily held
either formal or informal meetings,
SECOND. At the outset they determined to submit a prop¬
osition which should have 'the effect of securing to the Company a
suitable interest in, and large influence over the manufacturing
business; re-organize the business of exploitAtion in a manner
satisfactory to. Mr. Edison; and at the same time reduce the expen¬
ses of the parent Company to the minimum, but with a maximum of ef¬
ficiency and benefit ,■ having’in view the purpose for which it was
originally organized.
THIRD. The proposition was substantially as follows:
(a) That the various shops should sell to the paroITt Company an
interest of twenty per cent, and to the Isolated Company a like in¬
terest^ making^an-aggregate“of Wty p ; er= cent., and receive in pay-
meftt therefor, stock of the two Companies at par; the interests
in the shop to be appraised. (b) That the Light Company should
make e contract with the-Isolated Company, conferring upon it pow¬
er to instal central stations hod plants, and requiring it to main¬
tain the requisite staff of engfhddhs, officers, »c. and offering
to it such inducements ae might be proper’to lead it to undertake
and develop the business. (c) That the Isolated Company should
be re-organized by the ejection of such executive officers as would
meet Mr. Edison*s desire that the business should be pushed with
great energy. (d) That the staff of the Light Company should be
reduced to a President, who should also be Treasurer, one engineer,
and an Attorney,' all to be employed upon salaries; the President
to give his attention especially as director in the Isolated Com¬
pany to its interests there; and in his own proper office as Pres¬
ident, to the initiation and prosecution of suits, the perfection
of patents, the revision, if desired, of the contract now proposed
to local illuminating Companies Ac., «c. (e) That Mr. Edison
should extend his contract with the Light Company for at least
three years, and returning to his laboratory, undertake the perfec¬
tion of old and the production of new inventions,
FOURTH. This plan was first explained by one of the
Committee privately to Mr. Edison, who appeared at the time to make
ho objection to any part of it, except the extension of his con¬
tract, which he exhibited strong disinclination to assent to.
Subsequently, the paper containing this proposition was considered
by Mr. Coster, Mr. I.owrey, Mr. Johnson, Mr. Batchelor and Mr. Edison to¬
gether; but no definite determination was reached except that it
was le&rned that, both Mr. Johnson and Mr. Batchelor were strongly
disinclined to part with the interest in their shops upon the
ground that those interests furnished to them present means of
livlihood which they were indisposed to change for shares of. a
greater speculative value, but witnout present income,
FIFTH. Co-incidently with our pressing this plan, the
making of contracts with the shops by which their profit should be
limited, and they should be led to recognize all the patents of the
light Company, and also to assign to it all patents now belonging
to them or which they might hereafter acquire, (except those .of Mr.
Edison) was discussed.
SIXTH* This method without change of interest was
strongly urged by Messrs, Edison, Batchelor and Johnson.
SEVENTH. After many meetings Mr. Edison declared posi¬
tively his unwillingness at this time to'extend his contract, or
to enlarge his interest in the parent Company by an exchange for
an interest in the shops; and declared at the same time, as the
Committee understood it, that his objection was solely based upon
his disbelief in the ability of a Company to carry out the pro¬
jects which he had in view; but that should the re-organization
take place with the result of introducing the element into the
management, which he thinks is now lacking, he Would then feel dis¬
posed to consider such a proposition,
BIGHTH. In the meantime a conference with Mr. Edison
had shown that it was his desire that Mr. Johnson should take the
presidency of the Isolated Company, to carry on its business sub¬
ject to the control of a small Executive Committee, for the conpo-
sition of which Major Eaton, Mr. Upton, Mr. Coster, were named. Be¬
fore Mr. Johnson was named for this place by Mr. Edison, he had an¬
nounced his willingness to make an exchange of all his interests
in all shops for an interest in the light Company upon terms to be
agreed upon under the general principle of appraising, as your Com¬
mittee understood, all interests in the shop and taking the light
Company’s stock at par therefor. Mr. Upton also expressed in a
general way his willingness to make a similar exchange. But in
respect to the interests of Mr. Upton, no definite conversation has
taken place. At the time of writing this report the Committee is
still negotiating with the Manufacturers for some partial exchange
of interests and will make a verbal report should anything further
develop in this connection. Irrespective of such exchange it is
the belief of the Committee that if reasonable limit of profit to
the Manufacturers be fixed nothing better can be adopted at this
time than to make contracts with them in general like the one now
8Ubmi*ted, giving to the Parent Company the right to terminate the
same at will upon a prescribed notice. The Committee further rec¬
ommend that the Light and Isolated Companies be re-organized in the
manner proposed, and that the Light Company’s staff be reduced un¬
der the advice of Major Eaton, do that it shall carry the lowest
salary and general expense account, consistent with keeping it in
full possession of such knowledge of the business as would enable
it at a future time to resume all that it may now part with with
effect.
A subject requiring early attention is a readjustment
of the relations between the Light Company and the Illuminating
Oonpany of Mew York City. A verbal suggestion will be made on
this matter.
An outline of a contract between the Parent and the Isol¬
ated Companies is herewith submitted; but in connection with this
as with other points all further report can in the opinion of the
Committee be best made orally at the Meeting of the Board.

My dear Edison;
Eaton wrote me that his stenographer was going to
take his vacation from last Monday for two weeks; and I have
not therefore been able to have his services for'dictating a
substitute to the Contract respecting .arc lights. Next wehk
I expect to have stenographer of m y own and will do it.
■This I will do any way—(although I understood
you to say ybu did not care for any Contract)-because I assume,
that eventually y OU will prefer to use your own dynamo, and I
would be to know if there are any specific points in that
paper upon which you have -views' adverse to the provisions of
that paper. By the way, I never read it, thtugh-nothaving time
this year

Mr. Insul 1: -
Your memorandum of the 10th inst. in relation to the
charge of gib which "yiuMiiake to compensate us for the loss because
of error in shipping the wrong size armature to Newton & Oo.
I beg to differ with you, as to the responsibility in this case.
The only reason of your having the armature sont to 07 Sixth Av.
was that it might be shipped with other materials. It was never
unboxed, and even had it been, you cannot consider it neglience on
our part for failing to see that the Machine Y/orks make proper
shipment, as such supervision does not come within tho purview of
our Supply Rtore-keeperi Unlessjou can show a stronger argument
to support your' sugt
without rebate.

Henry Villard. Esq, Chairman
Chairman of Comnittee on Manufacture & Organization,
Edison Electric Light Co. New York.
Sir:-
■ After many discussions upon the subject of the relations
of the factories to the high*Co, we the undersigned have reached
the following conclusions, and present them with the full expect¬
ation that they will be received as honest opinions.
We conceive the prime motive of tharLight Co in appoint-
ing^urcom^ttee to^ be, . first; to provide for the more rapid
exploitation of the Electric Light system.
Second; to so re-arrange and adjust the relations of the
factories to the LighifCo that the stock of the latter may partici¬
pate in the profits of the former where they are the direct out¬
come of the Company’s patents.
Third; To so consolidate the working forces and profits of
manufacture as to reduce the cost of installations to speh a point
as will place the Company in a more favorable position in respect
2.
to competition than it- now occupies.
In our opinion all these things can be best accomplished
by providing for the most economical production and installation
of the Company* s Plants. v /e believe that the true principle
is to attain the highest possible development and the greatest
economy of production, thus rendering the earning capacity of the
plants in compotetion with gas and other forms of artificial
light, more sure and more efficient; thereby popularizing the
system and creating a demand for licenses.
We bolieve that any participation of the Light Co in the
direct profits of manufacture or installation will defeat their
purpose. That their true interests in the direction of securing
in every possible way greater earning capacity from the sale of
the product of the plants of v/hich they are by virtue of their con¬
tracts part owners, and that through their part ownership they
thus derive in a legitimate way an indirect but real participation
in the profits of the factories, We’i'are convinced that the
personal supervision and 3elf interests of the present owners of
tho several factories is far more likely to secure economy of
production than would result forom corporative control and manage¬
ment .
It see ms, to us that the attention of your comnittae
should be directed to formulating some plan of control and super¬
vision of the cost of manufacture so as to afford your Company a
constant guarantee that its goods are produced at the lowest pt«
possible figure, consistent with a fair manufacturer’s profit; and
also to tho question of the more economical operation of the var¬
ious installation Departmennts. This latter is in our opinion
of vary great importance. The cost of an installation may be
may be very greatly enhanced by lack of shill and by bad manage¬
ment. Our suggestion in this respect is that all installations
of whatsoever character* be made by one Department, thereby con¬
centrating the general charges of installation, and by their
diffusion over all the operations of the Company obtain a general
considerable reduction in the general charges on each particular
4 .
job. We suggest for this purpose that the Isolated Company be¬
come contractors for instal ling Central Station Plants, and that
they do all the work in relation thereto not now performed gy them
It is obvious that the commarcial and practical Departments of the
Isolated Company in such a case should be presided over by a man
of great executive capacity. We therefore suggest that such a
man be sought and placed in charge of the affairs of that Company.

smaller size than the mains. The wiring of bmaldings for tho
Edison light is done by sftilled workmen employed by the company.
The wires are piaffed two and a half inches apart each wire having
a double insulated non-combustible covering and being further pro¬
tected by a wooden moulding containing grooves on the under side
to receive the wires, thus rendering any contact or "cross* almost
impossible.
In case any accidental contact of the wires, either directly
or indirectly by tho contact of any metallic conductor, such as
a gas or water pipe, with'them, should happen, Mr. Edison has in-
-yerrted a device termed's!*safety catch*- which secures absoluft'e - ¥ree-
dom from danger by fire and is an essential feature of his system
op distribution. This device is intended to ptay in the system
of electric distribution, u part analogous to that performed by
the safety valve in-'a steam boiler or an overflow pipe in a system
of water supply. It consists simply of a short piece of wire, s'
fusible at a comparatively low temperature, which is inserted in
and forms part of every circuit. The wire is an alloy of lead
-tiin; and is contained in an adjustable plug or block. The ob¬
ject of the safety-catch is to obviate the danger of fire arising
from an excess of current at any given point. Por instance, if
from any cause an excessive amount of current passes through the
circuit, the safety-catch would immediately fuse and thus cut off
tho flow of the current before any danger could possibly be done
by overheating the wires. To make this perfectly clear to those.

to TH8 STOCKHOLDERS Q» THE EDISON BLKOTRTO LTQHT QOMPANT OP WFBQPE,
limited:-
A report on the condition of the 0onpany was submitted
at a Special meeting of the Stockholders held (larch 7th. 18B4,
since which time nothing new has transpired*
At the meeting of March 7th* the stockholder* confirmed
the action of your Board in giving an option to a Faria syndicate
to merge the existing three Pari* Companies into one Company and
raising their present united Capital* 3^500*000 francs*to 10,000,-
000 francs. A foil statement of the terms and conditions of this
proposed merger was mads to the stockholders at the above meeting.
The option above referred to haa not expired and doea not expire
until June 32nd, We have however had a cable from our Paris
representative stating that there is a great probability of the
matter being closed very shortly, in which event we presume the
capital for the new company will be at once raised and work on the
large central station at Paris commenced.
We are informed that the light has made steady progress
in Europe during the past year. A central station of 6000 lamps
capacity was installed at Milan and has been in operation for near¬
ly a year* lighting la Scala and other theatres* as wall as a num¬
ber of stores and residences. Oapital has been raised for a large
central station in Berlin, and we are informed that negotiations
are pending for the installations of stations in other cities.
Hr. Batchelor is how on the way from Paris to New York with the
plans and specifications for the Paris Station for the purpose of
a
discussing the same with Mr. Kdison, in order that the best possi¬
ble restats may be obtained when the station is. installed*
The financial condition of the Company prosents a very
serious aspect* At the stockholders* meeting of March-7th« a
full statement was made as to the Company*s-bonded indebtedness of
*100,000., by which it appeared that the same becomes due November
1st. 1884, and that there was no money in the Treasury either to
pay the principal or the half yearly interest due May 1st. The
stockholders authorised your Board to pledge a number of our Poun¬
ders* shares, if necessary, to raise money for the May interest.
The Second Vice President thereupon wr*te to Mr. J. P. Bailey at'
a loan
Paris regarding the matter, and requested him to obtain^for us upon
a deposit of a small number of our Pounders* shares, to which Mr.
Bailey wrote that he would certainly arrange to have the money for
us ip time to pay our interest. About the end of last month, liot
having heard from Mr. Bailey in regard to the money, we cabled him
urging immediate attention. We received a reply by cable stating
that there was the greatest probability that the syndicate would
be made up on Saturday May 3rd,, and that it would be dangerous to
press for the loan now. We cabled in reply saying that we must
have the money at onee» - but have received a cable from Mr. Bailey
stating that the syndicate will be formed and that we shall certain
ly receive the money this month. We shall therefore be compelled
to ask the bondholders to postpone presenting their coupons, for
the present until we receive money from Paris.
Inasmuch as we cannot be certain of raising any money in
Paris, it would seam that the Company is in a critical position on
account of its inability to pay the interest on its bonds. Jhe
bondholders, or any of them, can bring suit against us at'any time
and might possibly apply for the appointment of a Receiver. this,
*• are assured by Mr. Bailey, would ruin the business of the Com¬
panies in Burope, and, consequently, take away from our assets
what value they now have.
If the stockholders can furnish any solution of the dif¬
ficult problem of raising money to meet the interest «n the bonds,
a task which the present Board of Directors have been unable to
successfully perform, they will render a great service to the Com¬
pany.
In the judgment of ionr Board there is nothing else re¬
maining to be said except what has been already set forth in the
special
report submitted to the SMtoMm meeting, mentioned above.

The Edison Electric Light Company of Europe, Limited.
65 Fifth Avenue, Mew 'York, August 15th. 1884.
To the Directors of the Edison Electric Light Company
of Europe, Limited;
This company is asked by Mr; Bailey to give its consent
to certain proposod changes in the present contract with the Gor¬
man Co., and to certain modifications in tho present arrangements
with Mess. Siemens * Halsko, Berlin; and X beg to submit below a
full statement of ail the matters involved.
The Gorman Edison Company now has by contract the right
to exploit the Edison system in Germany, both by Isolated plants
and Central Stations; The-Articles of Association of the German
Co. (Article 2) allow that Co. to "erect branch-establishments and
agencies of every description at home and abroad”. Whether this
means outside of Germany is not quite clear. The German Co, also
possesses the right to manufacture all apparatus, including lamps.
Mass. Siemens « Halske also have the right to manufacture conjoint¬
ly with the German Company on paying certain royalties to that Com¬
pany. The Contracts, which were executed March 13th., 1883, gi¬
ve to the Compagnie Cdntinantale Edison, of Paris, founders shares
entitling it to 21 per cent of tho net profits of the German com¬
pany after a six per cent dividend has been paid to the cash capi¬
tal. They also provide for payment to the Cie Continentale of a
2 /
royalty on each lamp used or sold in Germany equal to 16V3 of tho
actual cost of the lamp to the German Company; also for the pay-
raant of royalties on the dynamos In aach installation, at the rate
l/
of 12/z Marks (S3,12) par horse power of the dynamos up to 50
horse power, and beyond that; ‘16 Marks (84) per horse power. The
royalty on dynamos is not yearly and is to be paid once only.
When the German Company was formed, it paid in cash to the Cie.
Continentals, 350,000 Marks (887,500), and the Cie. Continentals
is to forego the above royalties until they roach the said sum of
350,000 marks, an amortizement of that advance cash payment thus
taking place. The German Company now desire to add to their ter¬
ritory by taking also Russia, Austria and Denmark, and, while the
change is being made in their contract, also to make some modi¬
fications in the terms of their original contract, March 13th.,
1883.
The said proposed modifications are as follows:
1. The German Co. are now restricted to the Edi¬
son dynamo for incandescent lighting. They want the
privilege of using any other type of dynamo they may
choose.
2. The Gorman Co. wish to be free to grant licen¬
ses to others to manufacture dynamos without the con¬
sent of the cie. continentals. Under the present con¬
tract such consent is imperative.
3. The German Co. wish to have the right to buy
patents, the same to cost not more than $5000 or 87,500
a year; This is a new provision.
4. f‘ No royalty to be paid on dynamos by German Co.
They now pay the Cie. Continental® a royalty of S3,12
(or $4,00) per H. P., as explained above. /
2 /
5. The lamp royalty to bo raised from 16/3 of
the cost of Iannis to a fixed royalty of 40 centimes,
and is to be paid for every lanp used or sold in Ger¬
many, Russia, Austria, or Denmark. So far as we can
judge, the old royalty would be about six cents per
lamp and would decrease as the cost of manufacture de¬
creased, while the new royalty will be fixed and amount
to 8 cents per lamp.
6. The Gorman Co. would exploit the system in all
four of the above Countries with its own capital and
to establish agencies in each of those Countries.
7. The German Co. to give no license for manu¬
facturing lamps, but must manufacture all lamps itself.
8. The German Co. to pay all present and future
expenses of patents in all four of the above Countries.
The above Eight items constitute the modifications, so
far as I can make them out, which the German Co. now asks to have
made in the original contract of March 13, 1883.
It appears that in negotiating this new Contract, the
Cie.. Continentals have been endeavoring to obtain, in addition to
the royalties 4c. which they are already entitled to, a direct
participation in the profits received by the German Co. from lo¬
cal conpanies formed by it in any of the above countries, Mr.
Bailey writes us that the German Co. was, however, so decidedly
opposed to this, that he (Mr. Bailey) was compelled to go to Ber¬
lin to talk over the matter in person. He writes us that the
above 8 specified poirits have bean agreed’ to by the "German Co.
and the Board of Directors oftheCie. Continentals, but that no
decision has been.arrived at in regard to the said direct parti¬
cipation in profits. : In a latter to us dated Berlin, July 15th.,
1884, ur, Bailey'writes that he is convinced that it is out of
the question to expect a direct participation in profits of local
companies to bo given to the Cie. Continentals, owing to the weak
patent situation in the countries above named, also to the great
conpetition in electric lighting, and to the fact that central
station companies abroad are compelled to pay a tax to the muni¬
cipal authorities of cities or towns where stations would be oper¬
ated. Mr. Bailey encloses in his letter of July 15th., a copy
. of a long letter written by him to the Cie. Continentals Edison,
Paris, recommending them to forego any direct participation in pro¬
fits of local companies formed by the German Conpany, for the
reasons above stated, also for the reason that great complications
would ensue by insisting on the point.
Mess. Siemens 4 Halske being parties to the present con¬
tracts with the German Co=, it will be necessary to obtain their
consent to the above mentioned changes now proposed to be made
touching the existing contract of March, 1883, as well as to any.
other modifications to such contract that may be proposed. This
consent, however, they have refused to give. Mr. Bailey writes
that he has discovered the reason of this refusal, which is that
they have been antagonized by the German Company. , ,?t was contem¬
plated by the original contract of March 1883, that they (Siemens
fi Halske) should manufacture most of the dynamos and lamps for the
Herman Company, and, it appears, they accordingly built a factory,
thoy claim, for this purpose. But they now claim that the Ger¬
man Co. has used the prestige or influence of the combination with
Siemens to obtain money from the public for its stock, and having
obtained it, has given no orders to Siemens ft Halske, thereby in¬
volving them in heavy losses on account of the factory, but has
had its dynamos and material made by other manufacturers..
The Gorman Co., Mr. Bailey writes us, has offered the
following modification* in regard to Siemens ft Halske, and in
their interest^ it being Ur. Bailey's belief that by conceding
the following points to Hess. S» S H. they, in return, will con¬
sent to the eight changes named above. The following seven items
cover the concessions proposed by Mr. Bailey in the interest of
Siemens ft Helske:
1. The German Co. to have liberty itself to make
its own dynamos below 500 lamps capacity, but not to
have them manufactured by any other manufacturer.
Z. The Oerman Co. to take back the right of
exploiting arc lanps. This right was given them
in Article 11 of the Agreement of March 13, 1883.
The oerman Co. agreed not to exploit any other system
of arc light than that or Siemens, or Edison, or a
system technically in advance of both. S. & H.
were to exploit all other lamps, and were given ex¬
clusive right for ships of the Gorman navy.
3,
Siemens ( as weli*. as the German Co.) to be
relieved from the royalty on dynamos.
4. siemens to continue to pay the royalty to the
German Co. of 50 pfennigs (about 10 cents) on lanps
mads by them. This is provided for in Article 6 of the
above mentioned agreement, dated Morch 13, 1833.
5. The German Co. to be bound to purchase all
, Central station dynamos from Siemens 4 Holske- j
6. The Gorman Co. to pay Siemens a royalty of 9
per cant on dynamos manufactured by itself.
7. The German Co. to admit Siemons S Halske to a
participation in the Lamp Factory of from 25 to 33 per-
centum, just what is meant by this, I am in doubt.
It would appear, although I am not sure of it, that
Siemons is to be allowed to bo a partner in the Lamp
Factory to this extant.
The above seven items, all of which I have stated as
clearly as we can make out the moaning of what i3 intended from
the correspondence, are still under discussion at Berlin and Paris.
Our latest advices are that the discussion is still going on, the
parties to the discussion being the German Co., Siemons S Haiske,
and the Cie Continental. Mr. Bailey thinks that the discussion
will result in having matters settled substantially on the basis
outlined in this statement.
ffa ars now. asked by Mr..Bailey to approve all the mat¬
ters now under discussion, a brief statement of inhich I have now
made in this paper, and he desires us to cable him at once whether.
7
ire approve or not. To be more axact, it would appear that ho
wants to know, first, whether the first above named eight modi-
fieations in the existing contract of. March 13th*. 1884, are sat¬
isfactory to this Company; and, second, whether, in order to se¬
cure the consent of Siemens a Halske to the aforesaid eight items,
WE, the Edison Electric Light Co. of Europe, Limited, will give
our permission to concede to Siemens & Halske the seven items last
sot forth above.
He are being continually called upon to make concessions,
and are giving away first one thing and then another, so that in
the end, judging from what has already occurred, it seems to me
that wo will have given away everything and will have little or
nothing left. Has not the time come to hesitate before we make
any further concessions? The status of our business in Europe
cannot be much worse, and it may improve, consequently, it seems
to mo, we might take the risk of refusing to make further con¬
cessions so far as thsy involve a lessening ©f possible profit*.
A meeting of the Directors of the Company to consider
and take action on these questions will be held at the office of
R. L. Cutting, Esq. No. 19 William street, at one o'clock, Wed¬
nesday August 27tho 1884. Mr. Hatchelor will be invited to attend
the meeting.

To the Directors of t he_Bdisoa_ E. &. Co. or Europe , .JdmUed.
Gentleman.*- Your attention is invited to the following sta¬
tement. Of the three Edison companies formed in Paris under the
contract of Nov. 15, 1881, two - the Soeiete Electrique and the
Soclete Industrial!® - are in a prosperous condition. The last
Balance Sheet submitted to the Shareholders showed a net profit
of 118,-425 f. for the latter and of 236,888 f. for the forme* after
writing off liberally for depreciation of material in the one case
and for expenses of first establishment in the other.
The third Company - The - showed a profit
of 10,295 f. But in its Balance were included shares of the Ital¬
ian Co. and parts of Pounder of the German Co. at par and at 100 f.
each respectively. These values were realizable at the time the
Balance was made. To-day these shares have only a nominal market¬
able value.
Since the last Annual Report the ground leased at Paris
for a central station has been abandoned, and losses on this and
expensed incurred for the proposed Station, will amount (including
repairs on the buildings leased and now occupied by -offices of the
three companies) in round numbers' to one hundred thousand francs
more to be deducted from the Capital,. The expenses of patents
and patent lawsuits will also amount to a considerable sum this
year. Amounts written off on two -Jumbos” built in anticipation
of the central station/and on other material and installations will
further increase largely the deficiency of capital. The balance
sheet that must be -submitted to the shareholders (unless the fu¬
sion of the three companies takes place*) during next month will
show the loss of considerable more than half of the capital of the
Sa nUnentftlfl . and Will beyond question involve the liquidation of
the Company.
The cause of this situation is that the Company can have
by its constitution no receipts except from the sale of licenses
or of patents or from royalties, The delay in the development of
central station lighting has prevented realizing the receipts an¬
ticipated at its formation from that source,
The Continentale is charged with the payment of the annu-
lUes of patents the maintenance of patent suits and generally
with all expenses incident to organizing and pushing the business,
by publicity or otherwise, all over the continent of Europe.
For those various purposes in addition to regular admin¬
istrative expenses more than'900,000 f. has been expended since
Fob. 1882. Of this sum only 450,000 f, has been replaced by re¬
ceipts from the sale of patents.
In striding the balance this year, the capital will be
diminished by the above enumerated losses, expenses and deprecia¬
tions and 300,000 f. of Italian shares and 60,000 f. of German
founders shares must be carried for only a nominal figure. These
shares and parts of founder if carried in the balance of a going
concern might from one day to another lawfully figure for their
heretofore adsumed value.
You will notice that in considering the situation of the
three French companies a o ll ecUyoly, tha profUs oarried in thg
balances of the El Mtr l qBfl and the Xpd.pstrielle make up the greater
part of the deficiency of the mh*xhhhhmx Continental and a very
J
mod.rat. or th . patonts WM . h ln . rilslon nu< (ta Qther
“"P" 1 " “ ” Uld 1 *««*“** *• the united
company in a strong position.
Tha actual earnings of the Industrials and Electrique
the last year augmented by the savings in expenses that will be
-de by fusion would amount to 15 per cent on the united capital
of three millions and a half, and would give to the parts of foun¬
der belonging to the light Co. a dividend of 56,000 f.
Another reason for the fusion is that no augmentation of
capital is possible either for the Rlectiique or the Continentals
while with a united company this would be as certain as anything
in business can be, aided by:,a proposed premium, of parts of foun¬
der.
The French companies have given to the Edison enterprise
during three years, without interest the sum of 3,500,000 f.: they
have organized autside of Prance companies with 13,500,000 f. 0 f
capital for its development: exploitation as well as manufacture
have been pushed with energy and with good financial results, so
that the business has reached the productive stage in all countries
(except Holland) falling within their field.
By the conditions of the existing contracts between the
Light Co. and the do. Continental the parts of founder belonging
to the American company can have no profits till the capital of the
Electrique and Continentals shall have been reimbursed. This cap¬
ital amounts to $400,000; a deficiency of more tha. *100,000. as
above shown is also to be made good to the Continentals: and it
would be necessary to replace the capitals of the two companies -
making a t*tal of say *700,000 to be realized from profits before
anything can come to the light Co.
This however is only a theoretical situation. As mat¬
ter of fact the stockholders meeting to vote on liquidation will
be called as soon as it is-announced that you refuse to sanction
the fusion proposed. The Directors are obliged by law to take
this action and at once or they incur personal responsibility.
The stockholders cannot do otherwise than vote liquidation because
its present organization imposes on the Continentals heavy expenses
that can now be met only from capital, and with no certainty of a
change in the future, from the stockholders point of view.
The French companies offer to the light Cie., in order
to realize the fusion (l) To abandon their right to the reimburse- #
^ ment and reconstitution of the capitals of the Elec'E^^^f^^
Continentale, which right subsisting would on the one hand prevent
the property of the light Co. having any value dnring many years if
not for always, and on the other hand will as shown above force
the immediate liquidation of the Continentale with a partial loss
to the shareholders, but a probable total loss to the light Co.
(2) To pay immediately to the parts of founder a royal¬
ty of 22 centimes on each incandescent lamp, whether of the Edison
system or not.
(3) To pay also to the founders parts 35 per cent of
the profits of the new Company after deducting only legal interest
for the capital and 5 per cent of the profits for the reserve re-
quired by law.
They ask from the Light Co. (l) the surrender of the
right of veto without which no augmentation of capital can even
be made, and (2) that 2000 of the parts of founder be left in the
reasury of the new Co. in order to aid in the development of its
affairs, for the advantage both of the shareholders and of the
parts of founder.
The carrying out of this plan will give an immediate
value to the parts of founder sufficient to cover the bondholders
interest; the failure to carry it out will almost certainly in¬
volve it in the chances of a liquidation whose result no one can
The parts of founder in the Gie. Continentals constitute
the sole and only assets of the American Cot This last named Co.
has no shares, either founder or otherwise, in the Cie. Industri-
elle and Cie. Electrique. Consequently, if the Ciw. Continent-
ale is liquidated, the sole and only assets of the American Co.
will be wiped oiut, as the total assets of the Cie. Continentals
will not be enough to pay off and discharge the class of claims
against that Cie. which, in the event of liquidation, would have
to be paid before the parts of founder would get anything.
At a recent informal meeting of some of the Directors.of
the Light Company and of a representative of the'bondholders it was .
desired^ that the demand should be made on the French companies' for
the jpiarantee of a minimum payment to the Light Co. of 40,000 f.
duly
(Nov. 20}
leaves me no hope that this will be accorded and to the contrary
assures me of the immediate liquidation of the Continentale in case
this condition is insisted on.
It is my duty to say to you that the whole situation of
the Edison affairs on the continent will be discredited not to say
disgraced and ruined by this result. You must not count that in
such a case the German and Italian companies will continue to rec¬
ognize their contract obligations.

Also the patent situation will be fatally compromised.
It is now critical and delicate to the last degree but susceptible
of a result equal to all our hopes. The first breath of a scandal
j
such as will ensue from the liquidation of the Cie. Continentals j
will destroy all possibility of anything ever coming to the share¬
holders or bondholders of the Light Cie.
A friendly co-operation between the Light Co. and the
bondholders in the direction of meeting the Sh offers of the Con¬
tinentals will absolutely insure the interests of the bondholders
and will create more than a fair probability of a large value for

Dear Sir:
By authority of a Conmittoo of Bondholders holding

rocodo from tho position it has alroady takon of insisting
as an ultimatum upon tho guaranty of Eight thousand dollars
per annum lamp royalty. Tho bondholdors recognize and
appreciate tho fact that your Company insisted upon this
guaranty in the interest of the bondholdors, but tho lattor

(b) Tho lamp royalty, as now proposed, to bo so¬
curod to tho founders shares, as now proposed, it boing tho
understanding of tho bondholders that the proportion of said
lamp royalty to belong to tho Edison Electric Light Company
of Europe Limited, or, more e.ocuratoly speaking, to bolong
to tho proportion of tho parts of founder hold by that
company in the now Consolidated Company, will bo about
two and three-quarters cents per lamp;
(c) Tho early payment to the -Edison Electric Light
Company of Europe, Limited, Now York City, of tho sun of
twonty-fivo thousand marks, tho same to bo applied by that
company to paying tho back intorost on tho bonds, to wit,

Dear Sir;-
Referring to the notice of meeting of the stockholders
of the Edison Uachino Works, sent you this day, I shall be glad if
you will sign and return to me the enclosed memorandum.
The reason for calling a mooting so hurriedly is that
it is necessary that the contract proposed to be made between
the Edison Machine works and the Edison Electric Light Co. must
be considered prior to the meeting of the stockholders of the
latter Company, which takes place on the 26th. inst.

Thomas a. Edison,
No. 65 Fifth avenue,
Buenos Ayres. Feby 16th. 1884.
To the Mayor of the municipality of the Capital Mr.
Torquato de Alvear: Julian Balbin, representative of Thomas A
Edison of the United States of Americans proven by the annexed
power of attorney, respectfully submits:-
/ That 1 ha v® special power from the celebrated inventor
Thomas A Edison,to request from the authorities of the Republic
all the necessary permissions for the introduction and laying in
this city^of the Electric Light,-Edison's System,- as also for
the distribution of heat and motive power by means of electric
currently the same system.
I consider it my duty^to accept the request as the realiz¬
ation of its object will be of great benefit to our city,- a.
benefit which has already been realized by various cities of
Europe, as also in the principal towns of the United States. In a
portion of New York City for instance / there actually exists in
private use 12,000 lamps which work with all regularity, and give
groat satisfaction to the consumers, who daily augment in number, it
being an established and accomplished fact,that the Edison system
offers- advantages over all other systems.
My principal does not wish to light the streets, but merely .
the,private houses, soliciting the rights of placing under the
sidewalks the conductors and service wires that distribute the
concession-
electricity. This same ^ a yot e m has been obtained in other cities,
NEW YORK,. . i
Thomas A. Edison, ,
No. 65 Fifth Avenue,
NEW YORK,
2 .
and I consider that it will not fro -m u inconvenience the municipal¬
ity to grant the said privilege; especially if they take into con-
, sideration that my principal will bind himself to replace the
sidewalks in the same position as found; subjecting himself in all
cases to municipal ordinances, and to lay the tubes at night,
plan
In the annexed Awusiag-you will find the full size drawing
of the tubes that enclose the conducting wires and also the dis¬
tributing wire. By it/the Mayor will see that the wires are en¬
closed within a small tube whose dimensions vary according to the
number of lights connected. The largest of the tubes as shown by
drawing^will suffice to servo for 4000 lamps of ten candle power
each; and the one that follows it in size will suffice for 1600
lights of equal power, and the one that is necessary to supply
12,000 lights^ only exceeds the first tube in diameter by a few
lines. Therefore the tubes are of such small size as to occasion
no damage by being placed under the streets. The isolated ser¬
vice wire is also of small size and is placed under the sidewalk
close to the house that' is to be lighted. For greater conven—
ience^if necessary, I will present to the Mayor a service and some
pieces of tubing, drawings of which I annex.
In conclusion, I will say to the Mayor that the object
that guides my principal^ is the placing of electric lights in
such dwellings and business houses as wish to use it, and in his
Thomas a. Edison,
No. 65 Fifth Avenue,
NEW YORK,.
3.
name,request you to givo me permission to open up the sidewalks
of the streets so as to place below them the tubing and serviced
conductors that conduct the current producing the light; he bind¬
ing himself to replace the sidewalks, putting them in the same
condition as they now stand, and to subject himself., to all the
municipal ordinances.
Isolated in the tubes are the wires which carry the current,
and the tubes being under ground, the electric current passing
through them does not offer any danger whatsoever. Neither do the
dynamo electric machines which produce the electricity offer any
danger, as they will be located in private property. The engines
to drive said machines will also be placed on private property,
and in all cases be subject to municipal ordinances that must be
followed when such machinery is being placed within' the city
limits.
I consider it unnecessary to enter into further details.
The electric Light for private use would be a great ad¬
vantage for this city, and I can assure you that considering the
cheapness of this light, before long,the greater part of the private
and commercial houses will adopt it in preference to any other
light used amongst us now.
In view of what I have said above, I hope the Mayor will
have no objection in granting the permission to locate under the
sidewalks the mains and services to be used for conducting the

according to the Edisonbsystem.

' To inform the office of Public Works.

Feby 29th. 1884.
I have had before mo the models of tubing,that is talked
of.as being provided to supply the electric light according to
the Edison system,in private dwelling houses. Those tubes are
of a. diameter that varies between 0.027 and 6.048, and can be
placed without inconvenience under the sidewalks.
Mr. Balbin, representative of the inventor, Thomas A Edison
whilst soliciting from the municipality permission to place this
tubing, states that the work will be done during the night, and
he will bind himself to do all the necessary repairs to sidewalks
so as to leave thwm in perfect order. If the Mayor decides to
give the requested permission^it would be desirable to establish
a clause by which the representative of this enterprise will ob¬
lige himself to accept and comply with all the requirements that

practice w»«4d~in the future indicate to be necessary.
juan. c. BuschiazzO.
March 1st. 1884.
We authorize the Company represented by Dr. Balbin to
place the before mentioned tubes^ under the supervision of the
Municipal Office of Public Works, and subject to the conditions
of the same.

Mr. Edison:-
Wo are'in receipt of a .letter from Porn, stating that *
the concession granted in Bolivia will expire in October next, and
asking that we send men and materials at once, for the purpose of
making an exhibition and so save our rights. Is it necessary- that
anything should be done' in' ; th.is iaatter? Will our United States
Patents be affected by default in Bolivia? ’ Or, have you already
had the matter under'consideration?

President, Baton’s jnem. on letter from Stewart, Santiago,
dated April 9th. 1094.
(1) The stockholders of the Santiago company, including
Kendall, have consented to lot Stewart run the Santiago station
for 6 months, Stewart himself to pay all the expenses.
(2) SteY/art expects that within said 0 months he can
pay a dividend. But he says he must also face a loss of from
one thousand to three thousand dollars. He asks us to pay this
whole three thousand dollars or whatever smaller loss may be
necessary to keep the station running for the six months, .if
the receipts do not equal the expenses. He says distinctly that
he will “make it pay dividends', but he also asks us “to pay
S3,000 or so much of that sum as may be necessary”. I cannot
reconcile the paying of the dividend with the provision for rais¬
ing money to make up the defociency. This is not clear to me.
Probably what he means is that he hopbs to pay a dividend, but
that if ho does not succeed in doing so, and runs behind, he
wants us to step in the gap to the extent of not more than
S3000.
Ho proposed within the 0 months to organize “a. large
company". Whether that company is to include Santiago alone,
or include the whole of Chili except Santiago (which was the
Ovalli contract) is not clear. My guess is thalt it means the
whole of Chili, including Santiago and everything,
r (4) The terms -to. be paid us by said large company are
j^a.Jihe,,Ovalli contract. Ovalli was to pay us,.on
the original capital, 20 percent in stock and 10 percent in cash
Stewart’s proposed company offer 25 percent stock and 5 percent
cash. As regards the lamp royalty (5 cents) and the original
capital ( one million dollars) they are the same in both cases.
Stewart further says that he will give us 10 percent
on all increases of capital and 10 percent on the capital of all
local companies. Whether this is to be paid in cash or stock,
he fails to say. In the Ovalli contract we were to have, in
case the capital of the parent Chili company were increased,
10 percent in cash of the increase plus 10 percent in stock of
the increase, being 20 percent in all. But Stewart offers us
only 10 percent, and does not say whether it is to be cash or
stock. Regarding licensee companies, the Ovalli contract gives
us 10 percent both of the original and all increases, the same
to be paid either in stock or cash as we may elect. Possibly
this is what Stewart means with reference to this new proposi¬
tion, but ho fails to express himself on this point.
In the Ovalli contract, we consented to allow bonds
to be issued provided 20 percentum (that was the amount we wore
tot receive also in stock), were paid us. Stewart prpposes to
pay us 25 per cent in stock, consequently we must change the
onditions of our consent touching the bonded indebtedness, and
■equire 25 percent to be paid us.
(5) Stewart says that Kendall fi Co. are to surrender
comnissionftdue' them from us and relinquish all control of the
iness. He states in his letter that the plan “is approved.
by all
in intara 3 t". Whether he means by that that Kendall fi Co.
approv© itj is not clear.
(6) I judge from Stewart’s letter that he is to pay
G per cent interest as rent upon the cost of the central station
that
building in Santiago {$94,000); and that^is to go into the run¬
ning expanses. Also that the stockholders themselves will pay
Kendall 0 percent interest upon such other sums as may be due-
his firm; also that the stockholders will receive shares in the
new company in return for their present holdings. It is not
clear how the stockholders are to be repaid the money they ad¬
vance to pay this 6 percent interest, nof how Kendall S Co. are
finally to be settled with. Is stock to be issued to the stock¬
holders for the money to pay this 0 percent? As regards the
attitude of the Santiago company to Kendall, is stock in the new
company to be issued to Kendall for that, or is he to be paid
in cash out of the proceeds of sale of stock in the new company?
Stewart is not clear on this, nor does he state whether Kendall
& Co. have consented.
Stewart asks in his letter that a cable may be sent
him stating whether or not we approve his plan. It seems at me
that the plan is not sufficiently definite for us to commit our¬
selves by cable. I suggest that a copy of this mem. be sent
Stewart and that when we receive his reply to it, we then de¬
cide whether or not to give our consent to the proposed company
Hay 21st. 1884.

W, N. Stewart,
I have your favor of the 23rd. May wi'th
relation to the running of the Santiago station.
In it you ask for seven ampere indicators for "K* dyna¬
mos indicating up to 300 sixteen candle lamps, which would be
^ A
about 400 amperesTand five)indicators up to 500 lamps. > 1
A ..
Now the “K* dynamos, which you have, cannot carry much
above 2oo amperes, therefore T cannot understand why you require
indicators which will indicate 400 amperes,_
The feeder indicators indicate volts and not amperes. ••'
Furthermore I do not understand why you require five indicators,
when you only have two feeders, and inasmuch as you are only using
the two wine system, I cannot see how it ,is possible for you to
require more than two feeder indicators. Furthermore I am not at
all sure whether you want feeder indicators or feeder regulators, .
1 That is whether you want to indicate th.e pressure, or whether you
| fi £want to keep it at its normally
If you want to indicate the pressure, your indications
J ^ jf'!■$ will be of little use, unless you can also regulate it, and if you
I
1 ^ i want to regulate the pressure you will be unable to do this, un-
l 'S* i i
| v bdf vless *ka fBuriar you have a feeder indicators or something to take
i **their place, 'Vhjat I think you require is two feeder indicators
ft
and one feeder regulator or equalizer.
The reason you only require one feeder regulator is that
you get your normal pressure on one feeder and then throw in re¬
sistance or take it out-to equalize the pressure on the second
feeder with the pressure on the first feeder, which you keep
normal ci<} L{^j
If after these explanations you still desire me
